The long white thing is called PL-12/SD-10. AMRAAM look-alike with rumored Russian and Israeli elements.

China really must spend a ****load of money on all these toys! (And I don’t even want to think about all the spying going on). Looking at that picture alone, they compressed what takes 15 years in the West into one year or a little more. DSI, CFT, targeting pods, EW suite, the HUD also seems not too bad. Rapid progress. Like their cars, remember when the first showed up in this town it was a dangerous freak, but they are advancing their art even faster than the Koreans did.

That is just a mere conjectural image, an artist’s impression.

Ohhh come on … this CG/FAKe or what-ever You call it is about two yeras old, it has been posted much too often … and still some believe it’s real.

Besides that, the MRAAM’s are PL-12 as said and quite interesting, the model shown has some certain similarties to the recent J-10B.

Psychological fear? Anyone? Any “pilot” developing J-10 fear?

How does this payload configuration compares to western types like Mirage-2000-9, F-16 C/D block52+ (F-16 E/F block 60),Gripen JAS-39 NG etc?

Can four hard points under belly carry anything other then dumbombs and pods? I.e. can they carry BVRAAMs like Typhoons or some sort of PGMs like LS-1/FT-1/2 etc

Up to six pylons for ordnance or drop tanks under the wing, and maybe one centerline pylon for the drop tank.
